After the game, legendary coach Obradovic addressed the criticism aspect in his career.

"I have no problem with criticism, especially that is aimed at me," he stressed via Mozzart Sport. "It's an integral part of this job, but the only important thing for me is the opinion of the players and the coaching staff. I'm not interested in criticism from the sidelines, and I'm not interested in praise either."

"I live for this job, I love it very much and I do my best," the nine-time EuroLeague champ added. "I'm not here to change people's minds. I don't read newspapers and I don't watch TV.

"News portals don't exist for me, I don't even know what they are. I don't know what Instagram, TikTok, and Twitter are. I'm self-centered and no one in the world can criticize me as much as I can. Even in the best game, I can find my mistakes," Obradovic said.

Partizan share 15th-16th places with FC Bayern Munich in the EuroLeague standings with 5 wins and 9 losses.
